Hi,
You can upgrade from 19.05 to 20.11 in one step (2 major releases),

again from 20.11 to 21.08.8 in order to get the current major version.
The 22.05 will be out very soon, but you may want to wait a couple of
minor rele
So the need to go step-by-step is due to changes in the database schema.
The upgrade process is not able to upgrade if there is too big of a
difference.
That is a little gotcha: so when upgrading, you need to start slurmdbd
and let it run for a bit as it does the database update (you can watch

Am I not correct in thinking that if I just go from 19.05 to 20.11 then
there is the advantage that I can upgrade slurmd and slurmctld in one go

You need to step upgrade through major versions (not minor).
So 19.05=>20.x
I would highly recommend going to 21.08 while you are at it.
I just did the same migration (although they started at 18.x) with no
